Hmm, I'm just guessing here...Is it something to do with Achille's heel or the Trojan War?

In the middle of reading a thousand bayonets, I thought I'd read this and take a guess.

It's very clever, though the answer is fairly obvious-shoelaces, right?

I was thinking shoelac too.

tug of war?

is it a shoe lace?please reply i really want to know! thank you =D
